    Fedora Core 3, more or less up-to-date.

    Attempt to do

    yum -y groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment"

    results in the error list shown below. Problem is - most those packages
    are installed, and the libraries are present! E.g.
    # rpm -q libraw1394
    libraw1394-0.10.1-3
    # rpm -q gcc
    gcc-3.4.3-22.fc3
    # ls -l /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-3.1.so.11
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Mar 4 14:31 /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-3.1.so.11 ->
    libgtkhtml-3.1.so.11.0.4*
    (symlink resolved, I checked)

    "rpm --rebuilddb" doesn't help. Any advice? [In case it matters -
    up2date" thinks the system is up-to-date]
